Dazzlin' Dolly: the songwriting, hit-singing, guitar-picking Dolly Parton / Suzanne Slade ; illustrated by Edwin Fotheringham.
Dolly is a little girl with a BIG voice. Music fills Dolly's heart so plumb full she has to let it out! She'll even sing to her cornhusk dolls or a pen full of pigs. She makes her own drum from a pot and her own guitar from a broken mandolin. But what Dolly dreams of is performing for a real audience--people who would hear her sing, and applaud!

Dazzlin' Dolly : The Songwriting, Hit-Singing, Guitar-Picking Dolly Parton
This inspirational and dazzlin' story of Dolly Parton-noted singer, songwriter, and humanitarian-follows her rise to fame, from her beginnings in East Tennessee to performing to thousands at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. Dolly is a little girl with a BIG voice. Music fills Dolly's heart so plumb full she has to let it out! She'll even sing to her cornhusk dolls or a pen full of pigs.

Will she summon up all of her courage and make it to the stage of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville? Young readers will learn about Dolly's early history, her endless creativity, and her plucky perseverance in this entertaining picture book that's perfect for fans of all ages.
